TinyPortal v0.8.6

[Tucker]

Your "Packages" directory in your install directory must be writable AND the file "installed.list" in the Packages directory. Check this! (Ftp-Prog or Shell-Access)

Just wondering, how you could install without this permissions...

Most likely that another mod have changed what TinyPortal changed in the first place - and then package manager can't "change back" becuase it needs the exact code.

Back to Report that as a temporary solution I have had better success uploading via ftp and creating new 'Rows' in the MySQL 'smf_tp_dlmanger' Table. [I use phpMyAdmin]

Yes, that is what really should be present as a option - so its on top of my list for  dl manager. It will be a separate screen where any file that are not "registered" in the "tp-downlaods" can be added instantly. So you could upload a bunch of files and use this option to place them into the dl manager data tables. Without having to use the upload function at all.

uberjon, if you need to un-install everything, the safest route is to upload the UPGRADE version of SMF, and run it. The go into package manager and erase any "installed packages". The upload/apply the packages again.

TP will be fine, becuase this will leave the databse tables alone..so when you install TP again it will just pick up the old tables and use them.

i seemed to have fixed that error by reuploading the sources.dir
ima try to reupload tp im a lil weary though

You dont have to be worried, Just make a backup of the files you change and if itÂÃ,´s not working, put the backupfiles back.
If you want to be sure, backup all files, but just overwrite or delete and replace on at the time and see if the replacement works for every file you change.

I just installed this its great!
